Blurb: Valerie Dearborn wants a
cotton candy life, but it’s more like a puffer fish: pointy, unusual,
and—if not prepared exactly right—deadly.In London for graduate school,
Val knows she's finally free. Her father and ex-almost-boyfriend are
back in California and she's out of the Vampire hunting biz for good. Or
is she?She draws the attention of Lucas, a 1600 year old
Vampire, and King to his kind. He’s also wicked hot. As golden as
Lucifer, and just as tempting, he makes Valerie an offer
she can't refuse— help him find out if the Others (Empaths, Fey and
Werewolves) still exist or he'll stop protecting those she loves.Lucas
tells her that Empaths were a Vampire’s biggest weakness before going
extinct hundreds of years ago. While the Fey or a Werewolf might kill a
Vampire, an Empath could enslave them, seducing or harming with emotions
at will. The one detail he leaves out? Valerie is an Empath.And after 1600 years of an emotionless existence, Lucas wants Valerie like a recovering alcoholic wants a wine cooler.Can
she keep those she loves alive, stop Lucas from munching on her,
survive a fanged revolution and still find a way to have that boring,
normal life she’s always wanted? Probably not, but boy is she gonna try!This is a full length novel and contains adult content.

Blurb: Love is Fear is the highly anticipated sequel to the Number One Fantasy Bestseller, Love is Darkness.After
a lot of swearing and only a little nookie, Valerie Dearborn has
decided to make a change. No more lusting after Lucas, the hot, but
emotionless, vampire king who can’t commit. Instead she’s going to make
it work with Jack. After all, not only is he breathing, but he’s the love of her life….Isn’t he?Valerie
is an Empath, with supernatural abilities that seem to do nothing more
than give her the hots for Lucas. Once upon a time, Empath’s had a
purpose. They were ambassadors to the Others—Fey, Witches, Werewolves
and Vampires. They could settle the emotions of a Werewolf and make
Vampires feel again.But that was long ago.Lucas isn’t
about to let Valerie go. He needs her to help him find the Fey, last
seen in the Colony of Roanoke, South Carolina, circa 1587. He still
believes they are the key to restoring balance to the world and the only way to keep vampires under control. They won’t trust him, but they will trust Val.Between
Jack, Lucas and Rachel, Val knows life won’t be dull. Nor will it be
the normal, 2.5 kids kind of life she’s always wanted.As their
enemies close in, Val must ask herself what life is really about–trust,
duty or mind-blowing orgasms? And even if she finds the answer, she may
not live long enough to enjoy it.Please note—this novel is not YA and has lots of sass, swearing and sex. Not necessarily in that order.

I wanted to review both books at the same time. Because if you read the first one, you'll have to read the second one. Just so you can see what happens next! I really enjoyed both books and I cannot wait until the next comes out. For all of you Sookie Stackhouse lovers you're not going to want to miss this new hot and sexy series . It was fast paced and completely engrossing, read and it left me wantingmore.
